I've found turning the connector counter clockwise is faster and easier than disconnecting the tubing to remove tangles and kinks. We used to disconnect the tubing and run it between our hands several times, twisting it counter clockwise allows the tubing and cannula to remain attached.

Thanks for this video, it really helped me to understand the difference. As a previous nursing student, they rush everything and you feel so overwhelmed with information and at times they don't teach you none of this stuff. #BabyNurseHere.

For tech questions I would contact your oxygen provider. The vents on the back should be wiped with a micro type cloth a few times a week. Also, follow the 12x12x12x12 rule meaning it should not be within one foot of a wall or furniture and should be plugged directly into a wall outlet.

I had a O2 concentrator just like that one. I put a "Light bulb timing device" in on a different breaker and the red light came on with it's beep. I restarted it numerous times to no avail. Insurance company got me a new one and it did the same thing. I removed the timer, and the machine works just fine. Any idea what the connection would be there? I've been an electrician for 40 years and I got no explanation.

I am having a problem using the humidifier bottle all of a sudden. I have water drops from the unit into my nose piece and some times feel like I'm drounding. I've had sore throats for months. Has anyone had this problem or know how to fix it?
@DrGetsThePoop2 жыл бұрын
You need to get a water trap, your insurance probably won’t cover it. It’s a tube that sets between the cannula and supply tubing that catches excess water. Vaseline can help with the nose. Good luck
@bubonikkronik65612 жыл бұрын
You may be putting too much water. But as the previous comment mentioned, a water trap is very useful. If you need 6 lpm+, then you'll need a high flow humidifier bottler and proper tubing.

@@vincebrown255 Thanks for responding. I borrowed an Oxygen concentrator for my Dad who was had breathing difficulty post Covid. It was constantly giving the buzzing sound which disrupted his sleep. We then had to get oxygen cylinders for giving his external oxygen support. A few days later, he was put on ventilator and on 6th of June, he passed away. He lost the battle with Covid.

Air inlet filter needs to be changed ? At what interval ? Also there are three metal cylinders inside box and one more thicker cylinder inside. What are they ? Do they also needs to be changed ? Mother is using since Jan 2020. Pls reply.
@jonathancopeland37394 ай бұрын
The three metal cylinders are the sieve beds. They filter all the other gases from the air and leave almost only oxygen. If you're getting low oxygen levels, changing those will almost definitely solve the issue. The other thicker cylinder is the compressor, which pumps air into the sieve beds.

All concentrators get loud after awhile....warning systems should be optional since even ""small sleeping kids" have to have oxygen. The only NECESSARY ALARM on them should be to alert if it quits making 02.

Ok so, Im a delivery tech and my question is: where does the concentrator get the power to prompt that beeping sound if it actually looses power. I tested some and the only one that did not beep during power loss was Drive 5 LPM. So where does the power come from for it to even be able to make a sound?
@SuperHappyScrapper6 ай бұрын
There is a backup battery inside the machine
@jonathancopeland37394 ай бұрын
There is a capacitor attached to the motherboard that supplies power to the beeper. The Drive concentrators' capacitors die after awhile, so they would need to be replaced to fix the issue, which will involve soldering.

@Tucker2love2 жыл бұрын
I wish I would have been given any type of information with my condenser. I had a kink, no alarm went off. It has been running for a couple of weeks and my O2 has been kind of bad (I didn't know why) - then the unit had an alarm and the water Level was low on the calendar in the front. I didn't know why so I used the manual tank and a few hours later I called Aprea and they said to go to KZfaq and watch the tutorials. I found out how the water cylinder in the front tells you the number for the oxygen level. Who knows what I have been running it on for weeks!!!! probably six!!! I didn't get a sign for my door, I didn't get any information at all. oh and then I was told to change the filter. on you tube it shows taking The Whole unit apart. I am not going to do that. It doesn't belong to me. when I got a hold of the company (by the way they are super nice) the unit reset itself and they cylinder was full again and from KZfaq information I set the unit to 2.
